Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 25% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.4/100, a mean average of 71.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.1.

One of my faves from growing up along with It Takes A Nation of Millions, By All Means Necessary, and AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted. All potent political albums with a great sense of urgency.
Hadn't listened to it in ages until last night and forgot how powerful, emotionally charged, and HEAVY the beginning of The Devil Made Me Do It is. I was on the brink of tears it was so great so it seemed liked a slam dunk nom. Childhood fave, something everyone should hear, etc. But the second side just doesn't sound as urgent as the first side. To be fair, the first sides is so emotionally charged it's probably damn near impossible to keep that up. I was definitely being hyperbolic when I said the second side sounded like b sides. It's not bad at all. Just not nearly as dope as side A. Still vital after all these years.
